I know. I dont want to start getting banned again. Too many bad expierences. Its hard to define what will be removed and what will be left alone in the General forum.
It is a bit, though I think I have the hang of it. Still never banned, despite posting in there quite a lot recently :)
Oh in the AFL they make at least 5 mistakes a game and lately they have been making around 10 - 15. Its not so much that they are making a poor (against the rules) decision. Its that the "Push in the back" rule has gone too far. They now pay a free against you if you so much as lay a fingernail into there back. Part of the game is using your strenght to beat your opponent, now you cant even touch them or face a free against you. Its just stupid.
Ok, that really sucks, though again it reminds me of football (sorry to keep bringing it back to that, but I love my footie, and know infinitely more about it than Aussie rules). Diving is dreadful in football these days, to the point where all physicality is gone from the game as players are afraid to give away free kicks. I guess the difference is in AFL it's a fault in the rules, while in footie it is a fault in the players.
Portal is way too slow today I cant stand it. I have a four day weekend and on the last day, THIS IS WHAT I GET FROM THE PORTAL. I stayed up all of last night to b/p and hopefully make 12,000 b/p points today and I get this shit. Its not fair.
No kidding, I've made just 60 points today, which is crap given the time I've been online and my usual pace. The week had better pick up or I won't make 75 per day this week.

Barracks roster – June 12, 2007
Yay, I loves me an update :D
Hi, you probably noticed that the update is a little earlier today. Reason being, I have a day off school!
Woo! Wish I had a day off work :(. I've just spent two enthralling hours writing a book review. Probably the worst 1000 words of writing I have ever produced.
MAJOR NEWS:
Shanus has put his hand up to do the update next fortnight. It is a very generous offer and I am extremely happy someone put there hand up for it. Thanks Shane, I will be sending over the tutorial on how to do it………………..now! LOTS OF BIG SCREENSHOTS!
Good job Shanus, we all appreciate it.
I am very VERY close to 12,000 b/p points and I was hoping to do the update when I made it but the portal is way too slow. I might not make it until next year.
Early congrats, though the redesign will probably come before you get it with the portal moving like this!
Top 5 Gainers:
pepeatumi - 1312
Sentio - 1151
pwroftheseagoat - 1060
PenguinLink - 1004
Seamonky - 798
Congrats to all- getting to be a familiar list :). Second is great given pepeatumi's ridiculous pace the last couple of weeks. Still gaining ground on Seamonky as well...
Special Congratulatory list:
Top gainers, repeat offenders: pwroftheseagoat, PenguinLink, Sentio, Seamonky, pepeatumi! (AGAIN!!!)
We're just THAT good :P
New to the list: None!
Top 3 biggest average rises: Shanus + 9.9, pepeatumi + 8.9, Sterockicy + 8.6!
Nice, I'm still going backwards rather than forwards :(
Random word: Glucose!
No, way too biology for my liking, I just want to forget about work right now.
Rank // Total B/P points // Gain // Gain/day // Gain rise/drop // Name
01 // 52741 // 0412 // 029.4 // 00.2- // Phantom
New leader, and I can't think of a more deserving person :). Might not last with X-Naut bearing down on you though.
07 // 37591 // 0798 // 057.0 // 20.8- // Seamonky
I still go on in hope that I will one day catch you, but I know I won't. In fact my pace may plummet very soon as I'm sharing my apartment (and therefore connection) from next week :(.
08 // 34879 // 1151 // 082.2 // 08.3- // Sentio
Still dropping in pace, but anything over 80 per day is good :).
